WWE: Next SummerSlam Location? Vince McMahon, Strowman Hits HRs

Next SummerSlam Location?

After four straight years at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, SummerSlam will move to a new location next year. There has been speculation that it could return to the Staples Center in Los Angeles, where it was held from 2009-2014, but WWE sources told both Dave Meltzer and PWInsider that it won’t be Los Angeles.

The rumor among people who work for WWE is that the location may be Toronto, PWInsider says. It would likely be at the Scotiabank Arena, where the Raptors and Maple Leafs play.
